Tarot Talk Show with Suzanne Treister
In this episode of Tarot Talk Show, James Ferrera welcomes guest Suzanne Treister, creator of the Hexen 2.0 and Hexen 5.0 Tarots.
Treister has been a pioneer in the field of new media since 1989, working on the permeable boundary that separates the limits of scientific research from mystical revelations. Her projects, which often span several years, interrogate the relationship between emerging technologies, society and alternative belief systems to suggest invisible forces that shape our current reality and have implications for the future that we are only just beginning to understand.
Treister’s works have been presented in numerous institutions, including the Tate Modern, the 14th Shanghai Biennale, the High Line in NYC, the Serpentine Galleries, the Centre Pompidou and La commande artistique Garonne.
In 2025, her work was included in the prestigious “Tarot - Origins & Afterlives” exhibit at London’s Warburg Institute.

Tarot Talk Show with The Pluto Babe: Thea Wirsching
Tarot Talk Show is back and proudly welcomes Thea Wirsching, "The Pluto Babe," creator of The American Renaissance Tarot, when she joins host James Ferrera from James Jude Tarot as he pulls cards from her deck to guide their conversation.
Thea Wirsching is an Evolutionary Astrologer, teacher, writer, and Mom. She has been practicing astrology for two decades, and her counseling business, "The Pluto Babe," approaches the birth chart as a tool for liberation. Thea deeply enjoys facilitating the validation and self-forgiveness that flow from astrology, and she often hosts workshops that dig into astrology's feminine archetypes: Venus, Ceres, and the Moon. Thea is a former academic, and her PhD thesis tells the story of America's esoteric history. Much of that original research appears in her Tarot deck and book, the American Renaissance Tarot (2021). She is currently at work on a memoir about her personal healing journey and its refractions in the lives of her ancestors.
